Lyrics
Every Time I try to get out
D
3/4
110 BPM
But Every time I try to get out
They pull me back in again
I try to go straight
Try keep me a day job
But I miss my songs and friends
Woke in a motel in Panama city
The end of a cross country tour
Sick as a dog and the maid is shouting
Don’t think I can do this no more.
But Every time I try to get out
They pull me back in again
I try to go straight
Try keep me a day job
But I miss my songs and friends
Went to go work in the loop in Chicago
Arbitraged options by day
Sat on the board of a couple of startups
Made some good friends but I just couldn’t stay
See every time I try to get out
They pull me back in again
I try to go straight
Try to keep me a day job
I miss my songs and my friends.
Finished my doctorate so I
Could teach college
The University of Georgia
Got me a title
Got me an office
Co-wrote a textbook as well
Still every time
I try to get out
They pull me back in again
I try to go straight
And keep me a day job
But I miss my songs and my friends
Still every time
I try to get out
They pull me back in again
I try to go straight
And keep me a day job
But I miss my songs and my friends
